[Chorus]
All my friends have deserted again
And I don't wanna be a loner
In my head, I can sleep when I'm dead
Baby, don't let the hype dilute ya

[Verse 1]
I got no want for the quiet life
No forced up smiles over tired eyes
Give me a taste of the riot life
'Cause I'd rather be a martyr than grow tomatoes
Keep the young between your teeth
Take the love, take the doves, take the self-belief
Make your shoes look squeaky clean
But if you want to be a leader, stop bein' a cheater

[Pre-Chorus]
So bounce if you've had enough of the people you know
So bounce if you've had enough and just let go

[Chorus]
All my friends have deserted again
And I don't wanna be a loner
In my head, I can sleep when I'm dead
Baby, don't let the hype dilute ya

[Verse 2]
Now lock me up in a riot van
As I hold up my fingers to this old man
'Cause he made sure my future plans
Became a time bomb, sleep with the lights on
Treating the planet like a playground
Destruction for distraction to cover up the shakedown
Hey now
You better not let me out

[Chorus]
All my friends have deserted again
And I don't wanna be a loner
In my head, I can sleep when I'm dead
Baby, don't let the hype dilute ya

[Bridge]
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
Do you know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
Do you know what I mean, yeah?

[Pre-Chorus]
So bounce if you've had enough of the people you know
So bounce if you've had enough of the alter-ego
So bounce if you've had enough of the people you know
So bounce if you've had enough and just let go

[Chorus]
All my friends have deserted again
And I don't wanna be a loner
In my head, I can sleep when I'm dead
Baby, don't let the hype dilute ya
All my friends will desert again
And I don't wanna be a loner
In my head, I can sleep when I'm dead
Baby, don't let the hype dilute ya

[Outro]
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
Do you know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
You know what I mean, yeah?
Do you know what I mean, yeah?
Woah, oh, woah, oh

YUNGBLUD

Dominic Richard Harrison, who performs under the moniker of YUNGBLUD, fuses alternative rock and hip-hop while speaking up on important topics like mental illness and politics. Hailing from Doncaster, England, he cites acts like Arctic Monkeys and Eminem as influences.

Harrison grew up surrounded by music, and in several interviews he mentions that his parents placed a ukulele in his hands within days of his birth. His father owned a guitar shop and his grandfather was part of T. Rex.

Before becoming YUNGBLUD, he performed as Harrison, releasing songs like “Miss Those Days” with an upbeat acoustic flare. In his late teens, Harrison was approached by a record label, and conformed to their expectations hoping for a successful career, but he left the label in favor of making the music he truly wanted to create.
